Orient Hongda is the largest threads producer in China. From this, for its new offices and showroom, we decided to transfer its raw material to the principal design element of the space.In a country with more digital than physical interactions, the project proposes to eliminate solid divisions and create connections between workers.

Utilizing the threads they produced, to design translucent curtains that allowed blurry views between spaces in the interior. When necessary, three-layer divisions were designed for the meeting rooms and private spaces, made out fabric then a layer of glass and again fabric, in this way the acoustics, important for these spaces, were resolved without neglecting the concept of translucency. A reflective metal sheet was used on the circulation area of the offices to try and disappear elevator and doors.

This building being in the industrial zone is China, is what really guided us to implementing this design concept, with the idea to disconnect users from the common experience of being in gray urban area.
